Tamang Heritage Trek

The Langtang Tamang Heritage trek is a popular trekking trail in the Langtang region.The Tamang people are an ethnic group of Nepal that inhabit the region north of Kathmandu and close to the Langtang range. Tamang Heritage trekking routes have been established to allow you to explore the fascinating culture of the Tamang people. The Tamang Heritage trekking route will provide you with a display of the rich historical and cultural heritage of the Tamang people as well as breathtaking mountain scenery, beautiful farming hamlets and rich jungle land. You will see and enjoy a spectacular array of Himalayan mountain scenery, including Langtang Lirung (7245m.), Langtang Kerung, Ganesh Himal, Paldor Peak, Naya Khanga, Yala Peak, Tserko Ri, Tibetian Himalayan range and Sanjan Himalaya range while on the trail.  Previously a restricted area near the Tibetan border, the unexplored regions of Langtang National Park have been developed into the Tamang Heritage Trail. The Tamang Heritage Trail is a new tourism program that promotes sustainable and responsible tourism.  Tamang communities are generally found at higher elevations with the villagers engaging in both cultivation and extraction of forest products. They are mainly sheep and yak herders but grow some grains and vegetables. Their daily activities include raising livestock, agriculture and trade with the Kerung in Tibet. They also weave unique  baskets and mats from mountain bamboo. The trail starts from Syabrubensi and passes through Goljung, Gatlang, Thuman, Timure, Briddim, Lama Hotel, Langtang valley and Kyanjin Gompa and returns to Syabrubensi.
